    Default product attributes

    Hello friends,
    Ihave osCMax v2.0.4 on windows xp, on wampp server.
    I am working to make a bookstore with about 150 categories and a huge list of books.
    The problem --one of e few problems-- i am meeting is in the content of the products own
    page.
    http://localhost/kp/catalog/product_...aht69dqqgeg59t

    My products have about 20-30 attributes which I want to put on the products own page.
    And i could not find the way to put them there.
    I tried these files:

    http://localhost/kp/catalog/admin/ca...on=new_product
    http://localhost/kp/catalog/admin/pr...attributes.php

    My attributes for any product are minimum(this can be more for some books):
    1 Category
    2 Title (Name of the book)
    3 Original Title (for the translated books)
    4 Writer
    5 Publisher
    6 Standart Price
    8 Discounted selling price
    9 Buyers advantage in %
    10 Some paragraphs from the book content
    11 Pages
    12 Paper Quality
    13 Binding
    14 Size in cm.
    15 ISBN
    16 Publish year
    17 Cover Designer
    18 Content Designer
    19 Editor
    20 Translater
    Now i study BTS while looking for any solution.
    Thanks for any support in advance

    Try installing a "Product Extra Fields" module from osCommerce.

    This one seems to have a more enhanced search function than the original module.

    Default Re: product attributes

    Hello,
    I found two add-on's from osCommerce :
    osCommerce Community Add-Ons
    Product Extra Fields 2.1

    and
    osCommerce Community Add-Ons
    Extra Product Fields v1_12_1.zip

    I am reading both now but, I don't know which one can fit osCMax structure and solve the problem at the same time.
    I am regarding to your experience Before wasting time with 'try and see it'
    Thanks for your interest

    Default Re: product attributes

    Hello,
    Descriptions in the installation file from
    osCommerce Community Add-Ons
    Extra Product Fields v1_12_1.zip/Extra Product Fields install.html
    do not match osCMax_Application/catalog/index.php
    The same is valid for Product Fields v1_12_1.zip. (osCommerce Community Add-Ons)

    So there is no solution for extra fields.
    Actually both files are written and progressed for oscommerce and both have some older versions too.
    İs there any version applied to this case in oscmax ?
    Regards and thanks for your interest..

    They need to be (slightly) converted to match the BTS template system in 'Max.
    PGM did recommend one in particular.

    I have had a quick look through the installation files and if this is your first install you may have a bit of a steep learning curve! It is quite a long install!

    The one I originally recommended is more complex than the other one. Product Extra Fields 2.1 looks like the easier install.

    This was something I was hoping to get into v2.1 of osCMax so I may have a go at the install over the next few days. I will let you know how I get on ...

    Note to both:
    Extending the Model Number field would be the ideal place to put ISBN, IMO.
